Dimacs At The Trec 2005 Genomics Track

This report describes DIMACS work on the text categorization task of the TREC 2005 Genomics track. Our approach to this task was similar to the triage subtask studied in the TREC 2004 Genomics track. We applied Bayesian logistic regression and achieved good e#ectiveness on all categories. 1. TEXT CATEGORIZATION TASK The Mouse Genome Informatics (MGI) project of the Jackson Laboratory provides data on the genetics, genomics, and biology of the laboratory mouse. In particular, the Mouse Genome Database (MGD) contains information for the mouse system annotated from literature
